Impact of seaweeds extracts applied to grapevine cv Tempranillo

Abstract

Grapevine is one of the most-frequently phytosanitary treated crop systems. Consequently, restrictions have been applied by the European Commission on the number of pesticide treatments and the maximum quantity of copper fungicides allowed per year. Moreover, there is a need and an increasing demand for more ecological-sustainable agricultural products.
Seaweeds are currently used as fertilizers in viticulture, as they have been proven to be beneficial in several ways related to growth and nutrition. In addition, some seaweeds have shown to induce resistance towards phytopathogenic organisms by stimulating the natural defenses of grapevines.
In this work two seaweed extracts, one from Ulva ohnoi and one from Rugulopteryx okamurae, have been tested in Tempranillo plants in an open-field experiment in Jerez de la Frontera. The goal was to describe their impact on grapequality and microbial ecology.
Interestingly, while treatments did not enhance grape yield, significant differences were found in shoot length and grape composition. Both seaweeds promoted the accumulation of tannins, while anthocyanins were significantly higher only in Ulva treated grapes. Grapes fungal and bacterial identification is being conducted to determine whether seaweeds alter the abundances of important taxa from the winemaking viewpoint.
This is the first field trial applying extracts from the invasive seaweed Rugulopteryx okamurae in grapevine, and while the experiment should be repeated on time, this seaweed extract is sought to be a promising solution meeting viticultural demands. At the same time, its use in agriculture could contribute to decreasing the algae accumulation from our coasts.

Optimization of the ripening time of new varieties descendants of Monastrell

Given the impact of climate change on viticulture in the Region of Murcia, this paper attempts to expose the possibility of using genetic improvement as a dilemma that allows access to new descendant varieties of the autochthonous variety Monastrell crossed with varieties such as Syrah and Cabernet. Sauvignon, thus obtaining hybrids (Gebas and Myrtia). In it, the chromatic parameters and the phenolic profile of the new varieties will be compared with those obtained by the Monastrell variety at two moments during maturation (12 and 14 º Baumé), to check if the results would allow earlier harvests in these new varieties thus avoiding the decoupling between phenolic and technological maturity, while improving the quality of grapes and wines.

Use of ultrasounds to accelerate aging on lees of red wines

Aging on lees (AOL) is a powerful technique to protect varietal aroma and color. Simultaneously, helps to soften tannins and increase and improve wine body and structure. AOL is complementary to barrel aging modulating the wood impact and protecting wine from oxidative conditions.

Integrative study of Vitis biodiversity for next-generation breeding of grapevine rootstocks 

Drought is one of the main challenges for viticulture in the context of global change. The choice of rootstock could be leveraged for vineyard adaptation to drought as we can improve plant performance without modifying the scion variety. However, most of the existing rootstocks, selected over a century ago, have a narrow genetic background which could compromise their adaptive potential.

Leaf necrosis induced by the insecticide carbaryl in Vitis rupestris ‘B38’

Carbaryl is an acetylcholine esterase inhibitor-type insecticide used for pest control on grapevine. We repeatedly observed the occurrence of interveinal leaf necrosis following carbaryl spray application in a Vitis rupestris x Vitis riparia F1 hybrid progeny vineyard. Spray applications induced necrosis in this progeny under both Missouri and New York field conditions an approximate one-to-one sensitive-to-insensitive segregation ratio and with 42% concordance. Results of subsequent in vitro experiments established causality between carbaryl treatment and leaf necrosis and confirmed the pattern of segregation observed in the field. We consistently map this phenotype to a major QTL on chromosome 16 of the female parent V. rupestris ‘B38’ regardless of whether we used field or in vitro-generated phenotype data.
